That example... is a shocking display of spine. I've really never seen that before. I guess there are exceptions, or at least one exception. Meanwhile, lots of places are having trouble because they caved to the unions. A couple more notable ones are California and Detroit. Note that voters are free to take the side of the employees, either by sympathy (dumb) or to get better-qualified employees. Instead of demanding that unions be legal, simply demand that the state provide good pay. (not that you get a direct say in either, but you can lobby and otherwise make it a campaign issue)
